On Hateg Island, a pair of dwarf Taracscosaurs are seen hunting a Magyarosaurus herd, successfully killing a slower individual. A trio of these dwarves later appear feeding on another Magyarosaurus. Pod approaches the group, and the male tarascosaur sees him and attempts to scare him away. Pod attacks and kills the male, scaring off the females and leaving the carcass to Pod.

There is no evidence this creature ever existed, as unlike the dwarf dromaeosaurs, it doesn't appear to be based on any as-yet-unknown finds (otherwise, it would most likely be based on the hypothetical "Megalosaurus hungaricus").
If this dwarf species did exist, it wouldn't be the top predator, as the pterosaur Hatzegopteryx is currently thought to have occupied this niche and thus would be the replacement of them (though it had only been named while Dinosaur Planet was midway through production in 2002, just one year prior to the series' release), but it would also mean Pod would be the one who would get attacked and killed instead, thus ending the episode on a sad note.
Dwarf Tarascosaurus couldn't roar, but instead they used infrasonic rumbles with their mouths closed like modern day cassowaries. This wasn't known at the time of production.
